Department of Mechanical EngineeringFaculty Positions

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at Michigan State University invites applications for multiple tenure-system faculty positions in three areas of Mechanical Engineering. All ranks will be considered. Appointments start in August 2016.

In the first area, we seek individuals with a strong background in experimental thermofluids. Preference will be given to those with a demonstrated track record in the development and application of advanced diagnostics, optical or otherwise. This includes multi-variable, multi-dimensional, and volumetric measurement techniques for complex fluid flow and heat transfer applications. Of particular research interest is energy systems, power generation, water-energy nexus, pollution and environmental issues, aeronautic/hydrodynamic systems, geological transport, biological/biomedical flows, and materials processing.

In the second area, we seek individuals with a strong background in advanced manufacturing. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, additive manufacturing/3D printing, processing of advanced materials with multi-functionality, computer modeling and integration of manufacturing processes, processing under extreme conditions (high temperature and high strain rates), traditional and nontraditional manufacturing processes (e.g. casting, machining, forming, EDM, etc.) and understanding and integration of multi-scale modeling and processes in manufacturing (nano to macro).

In the third area, we seek individuals with a strong background in the development of diagnostics for combustion, plasma, and other extreme/harsh thermofluid conditions, and their application to fundamental and applied studies in automotive and aerospace fields. Areas of particular interest include: sprays, IC engines, lean burn stratified charge concepts, homogeneous charge compression ignition, low-temperature combustion, and others, including after-treatment systems.

The successful candidates will be expected to develop an externally funded interdisciplinary research program of national prominence that includes fundamental research, publications in journals and high quality conferences, and education of graduate students. Candidates must hold an earned doctorate in mechanical engineering or a closely related field, with evidence of research accomplishments, teaching skills, and ability to work effectively with other researchers.
